Fall has announced itself with a most unfriendly nip in the air, forcing us to draw our collars up and pull the covers tight at night. Before you get to grumbling about it (it's a loooong way to spring), check out J.Crew's amazingly comfy fleece hoodies for a warm distraction.
The supremely durable Vintage Utility Fleece Fireman Hoodie is outfitted with vintage workwear-inspired accents. $88 @ J.Crew. Available in heather flint and black.
The bright red zip on this navy blue hoodie by Andy Mueller's menswear label The Quiet Life is what first caught my fancy, but this perfect description sealed the deal:
"Evokes 1970's memories of BMXing across weed overgrown fields to spend scavenged change on candy bars at the little league field."
I'm under the weather at the moment and have been gravitating towards anything that seems to promise warmth and comfort. The oversized neck on this hoodie looks mighty cozy, and I've been staring at it with longing for the past several minutes. It's freezing in my 'partment because my building hasn't switched the heat on yet, so I reckon I'll be sniffling the night away. Realizing now that it probably didn't help matters that I had Goldfish and M&M's for dinner (can never figure out what to eat when I'm sick). I'm off to go forage for chicken soup.
It's a germy, highly contagious world out there. Best of luck to your immune system.
Orthodox Croll Pullover in Oatmeal/Cotton Sand. Sigh. Even the color sounds soothing. $132 @ 80's Purple.
